Murder Mystery Takeover: Halloween Edition @ Esca Bimbadgen

Murder Mystery returns to Bimbadgen Estate in the Hunter Valley for a special Halloween edition.

Step into a night of intrigue, deception and otherworldly creatures as Esca Restaurant transforms for an immersive mystery filled with suspicious characters, hidden clues and plenty of batty behaviour.

The evening begins with sparkling on arrival and 30 minutes of roaming canapés, followed by a main course and dessert as the mystery unfolds around you.

Something strange is happening in Jugular Springs.

The town’s good citizens are mysteriously being turned into bats, and suspicion is spreading quickly. Rock superstar Killian Killagan has invited you to a barbecue at his spooky castle on Dead Man’s Bluff, but beneath the festivities, something sinister is unfolding.

Who is responsible for these batty acts? Could one of your fellow diners be a vampire hiding in plain sight?
